The files in /var/log dont need to be there, you can remove all the log files if you want (but copy them to another partition is a good idea, just in case). Allso it is good practice when you have a small /var partition to do apt-get clean which cleans out the local repository and frees up space in /var. This should be done regurlarly then (perhaps a cron job). Oli -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
